THE ANNUAL REPORT OF THE COUNCIL OF THE GEOLOGISTS' ASSOCIATION FOR THE YEAR 1920.

Read at the Anu ual General Mulill.'!•• Ftb1"llarv 4th, 19.11. THE numerical strength of the Association on December 31st, 1920, was as follows :-- Honorary Members .. 18 Ordinary Members- Life Members (compounded) 162 Annual Subscribers ., 620

800

During the past year 91 new members were elected, and although the Association lost 45 members through death, resigna­ tion and other causes, they have the satisfaction of recording an increase of 46 members in comparison with the preceding year. The list of deceased members is as follows :- F. J. Bennett, W. Russell Bishop, Dr. J. A. Codd, Sidney H. Farrar, Hiron Kumar Gupta, Dr. Wheelton Hind, the Rev. Dr. Alexander Irving, John Tabor Kemp, Prof. Charles Lapworth, Edward W. Smithson, Robert Tervet, and the Rev. H. H. Winwood. By the death of Professor Charles Lapworth the Association has lost one of its most distinguished members, who will always be remembered among the greatest of British geologists. He was born in 1342, joined the Association in 1871, and was elected an Honorary Member in 1894. To our PROCEEDINGS he con­ tributed papers on " The Diprionidze of the Moffatt Shale," 1874 ; "The Stratigraphy of the Durness-Eriboll District," 1885; "The Geology of the Birmingham District," 1898; and, with Professor Watts, "The Geology of South Shropshire," 1394; also the chapter on Shropshire in Geology in the Field. The Birmingham and South Shropshire papers were connected with August Long Excursions. In hi.s Presidential Address to the Association in 1910 Professor Watts said: .. The paper published in 1894 to illustrate the South Shropshire • For the fauna of the top of the London Clay at Chingford see Esse.. N~,aHsl, vol. xviii., p. 74. AXXUAL REPORT OF THE COU~CIL. excursion of that year, is of considerable importance, as Professor Lap­ worth gave in .it the fullest account hitherto published of his work in the Ordovician rocks of the Shelve and Caradoc areas. The history of research in this classic area is dealt with and there is also an account of the .Silurian and Igneous Rocks." His work outside the Association is too well-known for it to be necessary to refer to it here at any length. An account of his labours, with a list of his scientific papers, may be found in the Geological Magazine for rqor. Professor Lapworths name will be for ever associated with the use of the graptolites in strati­ graphy and with far-reaching solutions of structural problems in the Southern Uplands and North-West Highlands of Scotland. He received the highest honours at the hands of his fellow­ workers, including the Wollaston Medal and a Royal Medal. Dr. Wheelton Hind was born in the year 1860, and joined the Association in 1888. His paper entitled "Notes on the curious appearance produced by the natural bisection of some spherical concretions in a Yoredale Sandstone Quarry," was printed in Vol. xi. of our PROCEEDINGS: He read a paper before the Association on the "Geology of North Staffordshire," which was not published, and conducted an Excursion to North Stafford­ shire in r Sqo, with Dr. Smith Woodward anrl others. He also conducted, with Mr. C. B. Wedd, the Whitsuntide Excursion to North Staffordshire in Ig03. Dr. Hind began his medical practice at Stoke-on-Trent about 30 years ago. He soon became interested in geology, especially in the zoning work of Professor Lapworth, and began to apply the new methods to the Carboniferous rocks of the neighbour­ hood. With Mr. J. Allen Howe, in roor , he cont ributed to the Geological Society an important Memoir on the Classification of the Lower Carboniferous Rocks of North-Central England. He also wrote two monographs for the Palseontographical Society on the Carboniferous Mollusca. His chief labours were de­ voted to the palreontological sequence and the sub-division of the Carboniferous series, and the correlation of British and European deposits. He received the Lyell Medal of the Geo­ logical Society in IgI7. On the outbreak of war in Ig14, he joined the Army as a Gunner, but w:,-s afterwards employed as Surgeon, and attained the rank of Lieut.X'olonel. Mr. Francis James Bennett, F.G.S., was born in 1845 and joined the Association in 1882. For many years he was on the staff of the Geological Survey, and on his re-tirement lived for several years in the Maidstone district. While there he conducted several excursions for the Association, viz., to Cuxton in Ig04, to Maidstone and the Willington and Loose Valleys in 1909, to Leeds and the Loose Valley (Kent) in Ig10, and jointly with Mr. Benjamin Harrison to Borough Green and Ightham in Ig06. With Mr. H. J. Osborne White, Mr. Benjamin Harrison ANNUAL REPORT OF THE COUNCIL. and others, he contributed to the volume on the history of Ightham. He was particularly interested in the problems connected with early man, and wrote many papers on the evolu­ tion and classification of flint implements and similar subjects. The Rev. Dr. Alexander Irving, B.A .. joined the Association in 1872. He contributed the following papers to the PRO­ CEEDI~GS-" The Geology of the Nottingham District," "The Bagshot Strata of the London Basin and their associated Gravels" "The stratigraphical relations of the Bagshot Sands of the London Basin to the London Clay," "Organic Matter as a Geological Agent," and" The Geology of the Stort Valley (Herts and Essex) with special reference to the Plateau Gravels." Be also conducted several excursions, including those to Aldershot and Wellington College; Wokingham, Easthampstead and Ascot; Bishop's Stortford in rur r and (with Mr. P. A. Irving) in 1914. Besides his work on local g"eology he was interested in many other geological problems, and wrote several papers on the Permian-Trias Question, Metamorphism, and Alpine Valleys. The Rev. Henry Hoyte Winwood, M.A., F.G.S., who joined the Association in 1886, died on Christmas Day, Ig20, in his gJst year. having throughout his long life been devoted to the study of geology and archseology. To our PROCEEDI:-\GS he contri­ buted in 18g6 a paper entitled "Notes on the Trias, Rhretic and Lias of West Somerset." He also conducted several ex­ cursions, including that to the new G.W.R. line from Wootton Bassett to Filton in Ig0I and one to Chippenham, Calne, Kella­ ways and Corsham in IRg6. His last excursion conducted for the Association was to Ham Hill in rorr. To the Proceedings of the Bath Natural History Field Club and other journals he contributed numerous papers on local geology and other subjects. He was a Vice-President of the Somerset Archreological Society, and was instrumental in securing for the Bath Royal Library and Scientific Institution the famous Charles Moore geological collection. The thanks of the Council are due to Professor Watts for the following note: Mr. H. K. Gupta. joined the Imperial College with a Scholar­ ship from the Bengal Technical Institution in Ig13. He obtained the A.R.C.S. in the first class in 1915, and later the B.Sc. degree in honours at London University. As a research scholar he undertook a. piece of work on the granite of Crossdoney, Co. Cavan, in which he became much interested in the problems of Metamorphism. Later he started work on the Ordovician igneous rocks in County Meath. During a part of the war he nursed in one of the Indian Hospitals. Rarely enjoying good health he fell a victim to an attack of influenza at the end of 19I9, and died somewhat suddenly. He did much field work ANNUAL REPORT OF THE COUNCIL. and made large collections but the manuscript left by him is apparently not ready for publication. FINANCE. The net income of the general fund of the Association for the past year was £505 4s. Sd., as compared with £486 135. 8d. for the previous year. The total expenditure amounted to £616 13s. r rd., as compared with £375 2S. 4d. during 1919. Thus, taking the two years together, the income and expenditure were equal. The average figures for the years immediately preced­ ing the war are as follows :--Income £498 (including £40 from Life Compositions), expenditure £454. The total receipts from the sale of Geology in the Field now amounted to £473 145. Sd., as against a cost of some £580. PUBLICATIOKS. Volume XXXI. of the PIWCEEDmGS was published during the year in four parts. Before the War five parts were issued each year, but owing to the great increase in the cost of printing, it is impossible to maintain our former output. The volume includes 224 pages, with 16 plates and 27 figures in the text. The title page and index will be issued shortly. A list of Members of the Association and an Index to vols. XXI. to XXX. of the PROCEEDIKGS were also issued during 1920. Your thanks are due to the various authors for their contributions and to the following for permission to reproduce photographs and other illustrations :--Mr. W. H. Banyard, 1\1r. W. H.
